PRAME immunohistochemistry as an adjunct for diagnosis and histological margin assessment in lentigo maligna.

PRAME IHC is a sensitive (93.5%) and specific (94.7%) method for diagnosing LM on biopsy and excision, and measurement of histological margins by PRAME shows a high correlation with conventional methods for margin assessment. Furthermore, the nuclear expression of PRAME makes it a good target for use in dual-colour IHC stains.
